I love to eat, eat , eat....

Apples and bananas, sure. But really, I love to go out to eat. Love it. Just this past weekend my husband said, "As soon as you walk into a restaurant your eyes light up like you're a little kid." It's true. I just have a weakness for restaurants. All types (as long as they are good). I stop and look into the windows of every restaurant I pass on the street, and my heart sinks a little when there isn't a specials board or menu in plain view for me to scour.

I have gained an appreciation of food through cooking and baking for the past few years after previously being a disaster in the kitchen (see my sister blog, for at home meals). I have watched people cook at home and in restaurants, and I understand the frantic pace, and the constant "putting yourself out there" that chefs and restaurant owners do night after night. It's hard, and critics are harsh. I am not meant to be one of them.

What this blog is meant for is to help you find a great place to eat. If I think a restaurant really isn't worth eating in, well, I just won't review it for you. I would much rather tell you all the places you should go, than the few places you shouldn't.

Also, since people know I have a food blog, they are always asking me for recommendations of restaurants. So here they are Philadelphia. The Honest Chef is stepping out.
